About Tom & Zendaya

Tom and Zendaya are two sweet pups searching for a forever home together. They’ve shown incredible bond since their arrival at the shelter and cannot be separated. Tom is a 2-year-old male Border Collie, with a short coat featuring a mix of black, brown, and white hues. Both dogs are still warming up to their new environment; they tend to be timid and cautious in unfamiliar settings. These two have the potential to do well with children over 14 years old, but it may vary based on individual interactions. When it comes to other dogs, both can be selective, which may require multiple introductions for compatibility. Due to some behavior sensitivity, slow movements and gentle handling are crucial as they adapt to their surroundings. They are ready for a loving home that appreciates their personalities and provides an understanding atmosphere. Adopting them will not only give them a safe space but also a chance to flourish together. As for their adoption, it's important to note that Zendaya will need to be spayed, so the finalization will occur on or after September 22, 2026. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
